FAQs
Heated clothing is safe for big kids who are old enough to use the heat settings responsibly. ActionHeat gear runs on low-voltage rechargeable batteries with built-in safety controls to prevent overheating. Children should be taught how to adjust the heat levels themselves and to stop using the garment immediately if they ever feel uncomfortable or believe it isn’t working properly. Adult supervision is always recommended to make sure the gear is used safely.
Heated jackets help kids stay warm without piling on heavy layers, making it easier for them to play, walk to school, or enjoy outdoor sports in cold weather. With adjustable heat settings and lightweight insulation, ActionHeat heated jackets keep kids comfortable and active, even on the chilliest days.
Heated jackets work by using thin, flexible heating elements—often made of carbon fiber or steel plates—built into the lining of the jacket. These elements are powered by a rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack that connects through a small cable. When turned on, the elements generate warmth across key areas like the chest and back, helping your core stay warm. Most heated jackets, including ActionHeat, feature multiple heat settings so you can adjust the level of warmth with the press of a button. This technology delivers consistent heat, reduces the need for bulky layers, and keeps you comfortable in cold weather.
To wash a heated jacket, always remove the battery pack first and make sure the power cords are secured. Most heated jackets, including ActionHeat, are machine washable on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, or harsh detergents, and never wring out the jacket. For best results, air dry flat—do not tumble dry or dry clean. Following these steps will keep the heating elements protected and your jacket working season after season.
